Uyukpa Rigpai Sengge

Uyukpa Rigpai Sengge[1] (Tibetan: 'U yug pa rigs pa'i seng ge) in the 13th century[2] was a Tibetan monk. He was disciple of Sakya Pandita Kunga Gyeltsen (1182–1251, the fourth of the Five Sakya Forefathers (sa skya gong ma lnga), and is regarded as the foremost disciple of him in the field of epistemology (pramāṇa, tshad ma).[3]

His collected works (gsung ’bum) were recently published in the Tibetan book series mes po'i shul bzhag (Chinese: Xianzhe yishu 先哲遗书) in 3 volumes.[4]

His Commentaries on Treasury of Valid Cognition (tshad ma rigs gter[5]) are regarded as one of "the classics of Sakya School”.[6]

In the Sakya tradition it was said that Tawen Lodro Gyaltsen, the Fifteenth Sakya Trizin (c. 1332 – c. 1364), was an expert in Dharmakīrti’s Pramāṇavārttika, his mastery surpassed only by Sakya Pandita Kunga Gyeltsen and Uyukpa Rigpai Sengge.[7]
